These two former Trump White House staffers now appear in federal inmate register
Inmate number: 05635-509.
That’s how Steve Bannon is known according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons — the latest former White House staffer from the Donald Trump administration to report to prison.
Bannon, Trump’s first chief strategist when he came to office in 2017, reported to federal prison in Danbury, Conn., on July 1.
Bannon is serving a four-month sentence at the low-security Federal Correctional Institution, Danbury on contempt charges for refusing to comply with a subpoena for a congressional investigation into the U.S. Capitol insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021.

A district judge ordered Bannon to prison after exhausting all his appeals following his 2022 sentencing for two counts of contempt of Congress.
The Trump-adviser-turned-right-wing-podcaster is identified in the Federal Bureau of Prisons’ register as a 70-year-old white male with a release date of Oct. 29, 2024.
Bannon, speaking outside the prison alongside Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) on July 1, said he was “proud to go to prison” and to “stand up to tyranny.”
About 1,400 miles south, another Trump White House adviser, Peter Navarro, is serving a four-month sentence, like Bannon, for refusing to comply with a subpoena from the House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol attack.
Inmate number: 04370-510.
Navarro, described in the registry as a 74-year-old-white male, is scheduled to be released from low-security Federal Correctional Institution, Miami next week on July 17, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons' online registry.
Before reporting to jail on March 19, Navarro spoke from a gas station, calling his historic imprisonment an “unprecedented assault on the constitutional separation of powers.”

Trump, who is expected to be officially named the Republican presidential nominee at the Republican National Convention next week, is also facing numerous legal woes carrying the potential for prison time.
Trump became the first-ever current or former president convicted of a felony when a jury found him guilty on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to a hush money payment made to adult film star Stormy Daniels during the 2016 election. Sentencing is delayed until at least September.
Trump has also been found liable for defamation and sexual abuse of writer E. Jean Carroll, requiring him to pay $83.3 million in damages.
In April, Trump also posted $175 million in bond for his liability in a New York civil fraud case that required him to pay more than $450 million in damages, stemming from the Trump Organization's systemic fraud in terms of property valuations and tax breaks.
Trump’s campaign spokespeople did not immediately respond to Raw Story’s request for comment.
